Lynne, I didn&#39;t remember it as a soup, but my research books mentioned it as a one pot stewy soup sort of dish constantly kept on the boil. That&#39;s how broth was kept too ~ constantly on the back of the fire, with new ingredients added daily. Don&#39;t know if people could handle that these days! Have to admit, dal came to mind more often than not when researching. Interesting how every country has it&#39;s own version of a dish.

And amazingly good for you; lentils and pulses are the poor man&#39;s protein, and amazing for weight loss and controlling diabetes. And a lot depends on how long you cook it; Lynne appears to have had it the way my brother makes it, overcooked! I like my peas al dente... and with garlic, fennel, cardamon and asfoetida. Instead of bacon, you can stir fry some lamb with clove, cinnamon, ginger and black pepper and add your cooked pottage at the last minute for muglai lamb, and I wouldn&#39;t argue against a member of the honourable east india company bringing that back!

Ice cream can be a pudding, if it&#39;s served after the main meal. I had a yogurt for my pudding today. <br />There are some dishes called puddings, but they&#39;re different. Pease pudding can be served cold, and it&#39;s not a soup, it&#39;s a porridge-like mass, a bit like mushy peas. Ick. Not on my menu.
